Witness Joesph Graham told police Kirsty was acting as if she was "mad, drunk or drugged" and headed for the bathroom before trying to get through an indoor window and then disappearing from his view as she headed towards the balcony.

Police said at the time they believed Kirsty may have mistaken the apartment for a friend’s flat - and become disorientated from the effects of her night out boozing.

The five men under investigation over Kirsty’s death - named as Joseph Graham, 32; Ricky Gammon, 31, Anthony Holehouse, 34, Callum Northridge 27; and Daniel Bailey, 32 - have not yet been formally charged with any crime.
